how to define map[string][]string in raml query parameter


I am willing defining an query parameter in RAML that is map[string][]string, But i don't know how to define it. Instead of that i use examples, but API Designer does not show it as i define.

my question: why query parameter's example does not shown in API Designer?

example:

#%RAML 1.0

title: sample API
baseUri: http://localhost:3000/api/{version}
version: v1
protocols: [http]
mediaType: application/json

traits:
    filterProducts: 
        usage: filter products
        queryParameters: 
            filters:
                displayName: filters
                type: object
                description: filter returned products
                examples:
                    required-general-filters: {
                        "page": 1,
                        "limit": 10,
                    }
                    filter-based-on-product-id: {
                        "productId": 123,
                        "returnedProducts": ["similar", "related", "buyed"],
                    }
                required: true
resourceTypes:
    products: 
        get: 
            is: [FilterTraits.filterProducts]
            description: get all products
            responses: 
                200:
                    body:
                        application/json:
                            example: {
                                    success: true,
                                    data: "data",
                                    error: null,
                                }
/products:
    type: {ResourceTypes.products}

Solution

  • I figure it out. you can simply define your query string as a type in RAML and then use it in your query parameter like this:

    #%RAML 1.0
    
    types:
      filterCollection:
        description: filter collection query strings
        properties:
          hasSell:
            description: collection has sell
            type: boolean
            required: false
            example: true
          minSell:
            description: collection total sell is greater than minSell
            type: number
            required: false
            example: 10
    
    traits:
      filters:
        usage: getting products based on query parameters.
        queryParameters:
          pid:
            displayName: Product Id
            type: string
            required: false
          filter:
            type: Types.filters
    /product:
      type: { ResourceTypes.Collection }
      is: [filters]
      put:
